| There’s a song in my head
|
| Oh a line that never stops playing
|
| I’m not sure how it ends
|
| I can’t remember when
|
| I heard what you were saying
|
| I make the best out of the worst
|
| I make up half the words
|
| And wear a t-shirt of a band
|
| I’ve never heard because it hurts
|
| To be on the outside looking in
|
| Well I do my best to listen, but i’m uncomfortable with too much silence
|
| From the passenger seat you said what does that mean
|
| I said I’m learning to live with the violence, violence, but I’m not the kind
|
| that
|
| Wants to be lost I don’t wanna be forgotten
|
| I don’t wanna pretend that it’s alright
|
| I wanna see these walls
|
| Crumble and dissolve
|
| Around me
|
| I got my gold-rimmed diploma
|
| Wearing a square crown
|
| The class of fourteen wore their capes like
|
| A reverend’s gown
|
| All that education won’t help us now
|
| Attending funerals and watching friends
|
| Break their vows
|
| There’s not much that I can protect
|
| So I keep my good humor alive
|
| Nothing disturbs your intellect
|
| Like feeling something you can’t deny, justify
|
| I don’t wanna be lost I don’t wanna be forgotten
|
| I don’t wanna pretend that it’s alright
|
| I wanna see these walls
|
| Crumble and dissolve around me
|
| Saturday morning 11am
|
| Heard mom and dad talking money again
|
| Fit a seven person family in a five seater van
|
| I guess all you can do is the best that you can
|
| Dad pushed it all down with a Gibson in his hand
|
| To finish that song that never had an end
|
| I can still hear that song in my head
|
| In my head
|
| Information, education, given in love
|
| Questions digest like sugar in my blood
|
| Holding together what’s meant to fall apart
|
| Justify a reason for the way things are
|
| I don’t wanna be lost
|
| I don’t wanna be forgotten
|
| I got reason to believe that I just might
|
| One day see these walls crumble and dissolve
|
| Around me
|
| I’m not afraid, not afraid to lose
|
| It’s a voice that I can’t refuse
|
| Maybe I don’t have a right to choose when it calls my name |
